A Bill Intoduced in the Assembly will force Employers to pay employees for Jury Duty.
A-2818 amends the current law concerning employment protection for jury service. This law specifically prohibits an employer from penalizing an employee who misses work because of jury duty. This bill would clarify that an employer is required to pay an employee his usual compensation for each day that person is present for jury service, less the amount per diem fee for each day of jury service as shown on a statement issued to the juror by the court officer who is making the payment of juror fees.
